Abstract
A noise-preventing resistor has a structure in which a resistance wire is wound around an outer circumferential surface of a core, cap terminals are attached to either end part of the core, and part of an insulative coating (resin coating) covering the resistance wire and part of the resistance wire positioned underneath the insulative coating are cut, forming peeled regions exposing the resistance wire. As a result, conduction between the cap terminals and the resistance wire in the noise-preventing resistor is ensured.
Claims14
A noise-preventing resistor, including a resistive element, which comprises an insulative core, a resistance wire wound around an outer circumferential surface of the core, and an insulative coating which covers an outer circumferential surface of the core and that of the resistance wire, and paired cap terminals attached to ends of the resistive element;
- wherein the resistive element has peeled regions provided by removing the insulative coating in a plurality of places of the outer circumferential surface of the resistance wire configured to be covered by the cap terminals before the cap terminals are installed thereon, resulting in exposing the resistance wire,
- the peeled regions made by cutting part of the insulative coating and part of the resistance wire, including an outer part thereof positioned underneath the insulative coating, and arranged so as to make the exposed resistance wire and the cap terminals have surface contact with each other without caulking where the cap terminals are press fitted and attached to the resistive element.
A manufacturing method of a noise-preventing resistor having paired cap terminals attached to ends of the noise-preventing resistor, said method comprising the steps of:
- binding fibrous insulating material so as to form a long core;
- winding a resistance wire around an outer circumferential surface of the core;
- applying an insulative coating to outer circumferential surfaces of the core and the resistance wire;
- cutting the core around which the resistance wire is wound to a predetermined length so as to form a resistive element;
- cutting part of the insulative coating and part of the resistance wire including an outer part thereof positioned underneath the insulative coating, and removing the insulative coating from a plurality of places in regions of the outer circumferential surface of the resistive element configured to be covered by the cap terminals so as to form peeled regions exposing the resistance wire;
- and
- press-fitting and attaching the cap terminals without caulking to either ends of the resistive element in which the peeled regions are formed,
- wherein the peeled regions are made so as to allow the exposed resistance wire to make surface contact with the cap terminals, and are arranged substantially equidistant without facing each other in the radial direction when viewing the resistive element from the axial direction.
A noise-preventing resistor including a resistive element, which comprises an insulative core, a resistance wire wound around an outer circumferential surface of the core, and an insulative coating which covers an outer circumferential surface of the core and that of the resistance wire, and paired cap terminals attached to ends of the resistive element;
- wherein
- peeled regions are provided in limited areas of the resistor by removing the insulative coating and removing an outer part of the resistance wire in a plurality of places of the outer circumferential surface configured to be covered by the cap terminals before the cap terminals are installed thereon, resulting in exposing the resistance wire in said limited areas.
